This FN Venezuelan "24/30" action sticks when worked fast,:wink: at about the point when the extractor collar passes the front of the receiver bridge. This is with slight downward pressure on the back of the bolt. If I pull dead-straight it's okay.
Hatcher says that nickel-steel 03s were inherently sticky so maybe it's the nature of the material (?). I don't know if this 98 is nickel.
Machinist's blue shows contact on the body just behind the extractor collar.
Should I just work this area with lapping compound?
